Pride and Prejudice Quotes from Novel to Film (Chapter 6)

Continuing from my previous posts (Chapter 1, Chapter 3, Chapter 4, and Chapter 5) and moving on to Chapter 6, which was about the (Netherfield Ball scene in the movie with Charlotte Lucas' most memorable line, "We are all fools in love.") conversations between ElizabethBennet and her friend Charlotte about Jane & Bingley's relationship. Pride and Prejudice - Chapter 6

Novel

"We can all begin freely -- a slight preference
is natural enough; but there are very few of us who have heart enough to be
really in love without encouragement. In nine cases out of ten, a woman had
better shew more affection than she feels.
Bingley likes
your sister undoubtedly; but he may
never do more than like her, if she does not help him on.'' (Charlotte)

``But she does help him on, as much as her nature will allow. If I
can perceive her regard for him, he must be a simpleton indeed not to discover
it too.'' (Lizzy)

``Remember, Eliza, that he does
not know Jane's disposition as you
do.'' (Charlotte)

``But if a woman is partial to a man, and does not endeavour to conceal it,
he must find it out.'' (Charlotte)

"Happiness in marriage is entirely a matter of chance. If
the dispositions of the parties are ever so well known to each other, or ever
so similar before-hand, it does not advance their felicity in the least. They
always contrive to grow sufficiently unlike afterwards to have their share of
vexation; and it is better to know as little as possible of the defects of the
person with whom you are to pass your life.'' (Charlotte)

Pride & Prejudice (2005)

Movie Script

"Clearly my family are having a competition to see who can expose themselves to the most ridicule." (Lizzie)

"Well, at least Bingley has not noticed." (Charlotte)

"No. I think he likes her very much." (Lizzie)

"But does she like him? There are few of us who are secure enough to be really in love without proper encouragement.Bingley likes her enormously but might not do more if she does not help him on." (Charlotte)

"But she's just shy and modest. If he cannot perceive her regard, he is a fool." (Lizzie)
"We are all fools in love. He does not know her character as we do. She should move fast, snap him up. There is plenty of time for us to get to know them after we're married." (Charlotte)

Another first look has been released (above photo by Robert Viglasky via Sundance Institute) of Keira Knightley, this time in her other upcoming film Colette, in which she stars with Dominic West. Keira plays the title role as a French novelist, Colette, overcomes an abusive marriage to emerge as a
leading writer in her country and a candidate for the Nobel Prize in
Literature.

The film will world premiere at the 2018 Sundance Film Festival in mid January 2018.

It is a truth universally acknowledged that the most successful film adaptation (I'm talking about the film version released in Theaters/Cinemas not the TV Mini-series version) ofJane Austen's Pride and Prejudice, Joe Wright's 2005Pride & Prejudice film (which was nominated for 4 Oscars including Best Actress for its lead star Keira Knightley; 2 Golden Globe including Best Actress nomination for Knightley; and 6 BAFTA nominations including The Carl Foreman Award for Special Achievement by a British Director) has the best ensemble cast. The main cast of P&P movie are incredible and multi-talented. Some of them have been working steady and continued to get recognized on
their own in various stage plays, television and film projects they've
done since their P&P movie was released a decade ago this month.

When Elizabeth Bennet (Keira Knightley) meets the handsome Mr. Darcy (Matthew Macfadyen), she believes he is the last man on earth she could marry. But as their lives become intertwined in an unexpected adventure, she finds herself captivated by the very person she swore to loathe for all eternity.
